The Origin and Use of Banks
The Word ‘bank’ is derived form the Italian word ‘banko’ signifying a bench, which was erected in the market-place, where it was customary to exchange money. The Lombard Jews were the first to practice this exchange business, the first bench having been established in Italy A.D. 808. Some authorities assert that the Lombard merchants commenced the business of money-dealing, employing bills of exchange as remittances, about the beginning of the thirteenth century.
About the middle of the twelfth century it became evident, as the advantage of coined money was gradually acknowledged, that there must be some controlling power, some corporation which would undertake to keep the coins that were to bear the royal stamp up to a certain standard of value; as, independently of the ‘sweating’ which invention may place to the credit of the ingenuity of the Lombard merchants- all coins will, by wear or abrasion, become thinner, and consequently less valuable; and it is of the last importance, not only for the credit of a country , but for the easier regulation of commercial transactions, that the metallic currency be kept as nearly as possible up to the legal standard. Much unnecessary trouble and annoyance has been caused formerly by negligence in this respect. The gradual merging of the business of a goldsmith into a bank appears to have been the way in which banking, as we now understand the term, was introduced into England; and it was not until long after the establishment of banks in other countries-for state purposes, the regulation of the coinage, etc. That any large or similar institution was introduced into England. It is only within the last twenty years that printed cheque have been in use in that establishment. First commercial bank was Bank of Venice which was established in 1157 in Italy.

Origin of Banking in Nepal
Nepal's first commercial bank, the Nepal Bank Limited, was established in 1937. The government owned 51 percent of the shares in the bank and controlled its operations to a large extent. Nepal Bank Limited was headquartered in Kathmandu and had branches in other parts of the country.
There were other government banking institutions. Rastriya Banijya Bank (National Commercial Bank), a state-owned commercial bank, was established in 1966. The Land Reform Savings Corporation was established in 1966 to deal with finances related to land reforms.
There were two other specialized financial institutions. Nepal Industrial Development Corporation, a state-owned development finance organization headquartered in Kathmandu, was established in 1959 with United States assistance to offer financial and technical assistance to private industry. Although the government invested in the corporation, representatives from the private business sector also sat on the board of directors. The Co-operative Bank, which became the Agricultural Development Bank in 1967, was the main source of financing for small agribusinesses and cooperatives. Almost 75 percent of the bank was state-owned; 21 percent was owned by the Nepal Rastra Bank, and 5 percent by cooperatives and private individuals. The Agricultural Development Bank also served as the government's implementing agency for small farmers' group development projects assisted by the Asian Development Bank (see Glossary) and financed by the United Nations Development Programme. The Ministry of Finance reported in 1990 that the Agricultural Development Bank, which is vested with the leading role in agricultural loan investment, had granted loans to only 9 percent of the total number of farming families since 1965.
Since the 1960s, both commercial and specialized banks have expanded. More businesses and households had better access to the credit market although the credit market had not expanded.
In the mid-1980s, three foreign commercial banks opened branches in Nepal. The Nepal Arab Bank was co-owned by the Emirates Bank International Limited (Dubai), the Nepalese government, and the
9
Nepalese public. The Nepal Indosuez Bank was jointly owned by the French Banque Indosuez, Rastriya Banijya Bank, Rastriya Beema Sansthan (National Insurance Corporation), and the Nepalese public. Nepal Grindlays Bank was co-owned by a British firm called Grindlays Bank, local financial interests, and the Nepalese public.
Nepal Rastra Bank was created in 1956 as the central bank. Its function was to supervise commercial banks and to guide the basic monetary policy of the nation. Its major aims were to regulate the issue of paper money; secure countrywide circulation of Nepalese currency and achieve stability in its exchange rates; mobilize capital for economic development and for trade and industry growth; develop the banking system in the country, thereby ensuring the existence of banking facilities; and maintain the economic interests of the general public. Nepal Rastra Bank also was to oversee foreign exchange rates and foreign exchange reserves.
Prior to the establishment of Nepal Rastra Bank, Kathmandu had little control over its foreign currency holdings. Indian rupees were the prevalent medium of exchange in most parts of the country. Nepalese currency was used mostly in the Kathmandu Valley and the surrounding hill areas. The existence of a dual currency system made it hard for the government to know the status of Indian currency holdings in Nepal. The exchange rates between Indian and Nepalese rupees were determined in the marketplace. Between 1932 and 1955, the value of 100 Indian rupees varied between Rs71 and Rs177. The government entered the currency market with a form of fixed exchange rate between the two currencies in 1958. An act passed in 1960 sought to regulate foreign exchange transactions. Beginning in the 1960s, the government made special efforts to use Nepalese currency inside the country as a medium of exchange.
It was only after the signing of the 1960 Trade and Transit Treaty with India that Nepal had full access to foreign currencies other than the Indian rupee. Prior to the treaty, all foreign exchange earnings went to the Central Bank of India, and all foreign currency needs were provided by the Indian government. After 1960 Nepal had full access to all foreign currency transactions and directly controlled its exports and imports with countries other than India.
As a result of the treaty, the government had to separate Indian currency (convertible currency because of free convertibility) from other
10
currencies (nonconvertible currency because it was directly controlled by Nepal Rastra Bank). In 1991 government statistics still separated trade with India from trade with other countries. Tables showing international reserves listed convertible and nonconvertible foreign exchange reserves separately.
In the context of Nepal having adopted an open economy, an excessive level of liquidity will initially exert reassure on the balance of payments and foreign exchange reserve and subsequently cause adverse effects on he domestic price situation. Thus, it will be necessary to maintain a balanced monetary position to attain the economic growth rate envisaged in the plan. The sustainable economic growth can only be achieved if the monetary balance is maintained.
Another important objective of monetary management is to achieve maximum mobilization of internal resources.The monetary policy needs to be oriented towards encouraging the people to save through the creation of a competitive environment among banks and financial institutions and motivating the desirous entrepreneurs to mobilize the available resources through the collection of' the scattered savings in production and employmentGenerating programme in the country. In this perspective, it is necessary along with a planned process of economic development to initiate programmes that can create new financial bases for the economy, consolidate the existing ones and encourage healthy competition. A review of the requirements and availability of resourcesReveals that there is a tremendous resource gap between resource requirements arid its availability in the country;This is indeed indicative of the fact that a large share of private savings is still lying outside the domain of institutional systems, In this context, an efficient mobilization of internal resources can further enhance the participation of the private sector in the economic development of the nation.

5. Bullion Business
It includes main two Products:
a. NIC Pure GoldNIC Pure Gold is a first-of-its-kind innovative product ever introduced by a bank in Nepal. Though there is a sizable demand of gold in Nepal, hardly any quantity is imported officially. The majority of gold consumed in Nepal is believed to be brought in through the porous border without declaration and a huge amount of Indian currency is believed to be flowing out from Nepal due to this reason. Furthermore, consumers are always uncertain of the quality of gold they are buying. With NIC Bank now importing certified 99.9% pure gold from reputed international mints/suppliers unofficial import is expected to be discouraged, contributing to increase in government revenue and ensuring assured quality to consumers & gold traders.
Under "NIC Pure Gold", NIC Bank is offering high purity (99.9% & 99.5%) gold bars imported directly from international mints. The gold, thus offered by the Bank, can be purchased by anyone including gold dealers (wholesalers and retailers), investors as well as the general public. The Bank also offers a facility to avail loans from the Bank to purchase the gold. The Bank also offers custodial service under which buyers may choose to keep the purchased gold safely in the Bank instead of taking the high risk of storing it at home.
Some distinct features of NIC Pure Gold are:
99.9% and 99.5% pure gold from international mint (quality certified)
Loan available for purchase of gold against pledge of the same
Custodial service for the gold purchased from the Bank
Bank receipt for purchases
Available in 100 gram (99.9% pure) and 1 Kg (99.5% pure) bars (smaller denominations & coins in near
future)
Currently available for purchase from the Bank's New Road, Kamaladi, Birgunj, Biratnagar, Dharan,
Pokhara and Janakpur branches
b. NIC Pure Silver
77
NIC Bank repeats the history again by becoming the first among financial institutions in Nepal to import 99.9%
pure silver granules from the international mint and making it available in the local market in 10 Kg pack after
already becoming the first commercial bank to import 99.9% pure gold from the international mint.
Silver goods manufacturers / traders were facing difficulties as silver was available in huge bar of more than 31
Kg in the local market, which was not only causing difficulty to carry from one place to another but also needed
huge investment for stocking it. In addition to this, they were also facing problem for cutting the bar into smaller
pieces and safeguarding it. Whilst silver granule was also available in the market but its purity was said to be
below 97%, which was not supporting the manufacturers for manufacturing quality products.
With the introduction of NIC Silver under the bank's products-basket, NIC Bank expects to contribute to the silver
crafts and jewelries industry by providing it an easy access to pure silver granules, that's too in easy to carry pack
of 10 Kg and help them to get rid of difficulties outlined above and benefit the ultimate buyers with qualitative
products and value for their money.
Some features of NIC Silver are:
99.9% pure silver granules imported from international mint.
Available in 10 Kg pack.
